In the thirty-seventh year of Qin Shi Huang, the first day of the first month. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Pei County in Sacheon County has had a good year, and the snow is vast and fluttering.
It's just that Jingshu hasn't been with her brother for the first time, and she always feels a little lost, but fortunately, there is a master with her.
The courtyard where the red lady lives is not big, but it is very similar to the two small courtyards in Fushi County, as if she moved from there, which makes Jingshu feel a little intimate.
There was a fence around it, and the cedar outside looked very lazy, and the snow pressed its branches, and it seemed to be gently shaking the snowflakes.
The few sparse gardenias in the yard are not as lovely as the cedars outside, but for some reason, the red lady is not allowed to pull them out, saying that the flowers will bloom when they are warm.
The faint morning light was shining on Jingshu's face, as well as on her sword, she suddenly got a little distracted, in the past month, as long as there is snow, she will cut the snow.
The red lady taught her a set of knife techniques, gave her a knife, but did not tell her what the knife was called, only told her that the knife was called "Flower Dance Knife", but her master let her use the sword to learn the knife, which seems a little strange, fortunately she is not too laborious to learn, although for a few months, she has made great progress, which for her, has been very satisfied, so she always likes to chop snow when she is bored.
It was just a pleasure for herself, and the joy of chopping snow was that as the snowflakes swirled, she felt as if she had become a fluttering snowflake.
Suddenly, she made a move to "stop the first frost toad" to puncture the snowflakes in front of her, and the snowflakes turned into two drops of water, "snapping" to the ground, crisp and clear, she closed her eyes, listened to the pleasantness of that moment, and knew that she had taken another step, and the corners of her mouth rose like a crescent moon.
But she suddenly opened her eyes, her eyes were sharp, she jumped forward, and when she turned around, she heard a crisp sound.
"Jingle bell!"
I saw the red lady holding a soft sword, and with a strong wrist, she stabbed towards Jingshu, like a wave.
"The moon falls and the snow sounds late!"
Jingshu shouted and picked up the sword in the red lady's hand, stepping on the snow leisurely, volleying like the moon.
But the red lady "parallel white moonlight", suddenly floating on the left side of Jingshu, Jingshu moth eyebrows and smiles, making a gesture of "clear frost and staying", straight to the red lady.
The red lady had twenty tricks with her, but she was satisfied, and suddenly chuckled, and a red and black light flashed, hitting Jing Shu's waist, Jing Shu's eyes were stunned, and she hurriedly blocked the sword in front of her waist, but the strength was too great, and she fell straight back.
"Dang!"
An inch and a half of iron chopsticks tied with a red rope fell in the snow.
This iron chopsticks are called "Qingmang", but it is just a secret weapon, but Jingshu thinks that she should be above board and upright, and she just doesn't learn this.
As Qingmang and Zigui Sword collided and landed, Jingshu also "plopped" and fell into the snow.
She frowned, cried out in pain, turned her mouth to purse her mouth, and said dissatisfiedly, "Master! ā
The red lady laughed out loud, pretending not to know, and asked, "What?" ā
Jingshu stood up dissatisfied, and pouted, "Master, you are cheating!" ā
"This is because you don't want to learn, how can you say that I am cheating?" The red lady said as she went into the room.
Jingshu picked up the iron chopsticks and complained after her, "How can Master secretly make this Qingmang harm me? We almost died! ā
The red lady sat on the wooden pier, a pot of wine on the square table had just been heated, she poured the wine, shook it lightly, took a sip, raised her eyes to look at her, and said, "If it weren't for me, wouldn't you have died a long time ago?" ā
Jing Shu was speechless, and sat down with her, calling Qiao Ling, the only slave here.
Qiao Ling was born handsome, and they picked it up on the road, but unfortunately he doesn't know martial arts, and he is a mute, so he can only cook good dishes.
In this place, no one cares when they eat or when they get up, but in the past few months, they have eaten well and eaten well because Qiao Ling is here.
The red lady saw that Qiao Ling had set up the food and chopsticks, and said, "Sit down and eat." ā
Qiao Ling bent his eyes and smiled, thanking him, and then sat down and ate with his head down.
These days, she has been like this, she doesn't dare to look at others carefully, she often lowers her head, Jingshu always tells her not to be afraid, but she always nods, and the next day it was still like this.
The red lady said that she probably fell into a poison called "Si Lingsan", which is said to make people unable to remember the day before, and she only remembers that she called herself "Qiao Ling".
It's a pity that the red lady doesn't know how to detoxify this poison, but because of this, she agreed to let Qiao Ling stay.
The red lady suddenly said: "What is martial arts? ā
Jing Shu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and thought for a while, and replied: "In "Zuo's Spring and Autumn Period", the king of Chuzhuang said that Fuwen stopped fighting for martial arts. He also said that the husband forbade the violent soldiers to protect the great merit and the people and wealth. ā
After speaking, her starry eyes flowed, and seeing that her master didn't answer for a long time, she hurriedly asked, "Master, do you think I'm right?" ā
The red lady smiled with satisfaction and said, "You said it very well, but you have to remember that to keep yourself and your family safe, this is Xiaowu, the country, the people, and Dawu."
And in this world, not many people will think like you, how do you do it? ā
Jingshu seemed to understand whether she understood or not, she was stunned for a while, unable to say a word, and Qiao Ling, who was on the side, suddenly shook her body.
The red lady smiled and touched her head, and said, "You have such thoughts at a young age, and it is difficult for you." ā
Jing Shu's heavy eyelashes flickered a few times, and she sighed: "But I don't know how to do it." ā
The red lady said comfortingly: "The martial artist is great, that is, he is stopped." If you want to stop the rebellion of others and the country, you must first cultivate your body. ā
Jing Shu whispered, "The martial artist is the greatest, that is, the fight", although she didn't understand it, she nodded in agreement and admiration, and said, "That's it." Can...... But if Master's relatives provoke a war, what should they do? ā
"This is to embarrass me, I can't tell you the words 'You should kill your relatives in righteousness', because I'm afraid I can't even do it myself." The red lady smiled, but she suddenly stopped laughing, because there seemed to be the sound of a crowd in the snow outside the yard!
Jing Shu frowned and whispered, "Master." ā
"You take Qiao Ling away first!" The red lady commanded in a low voice, without doubt.
"What about Master?"
"Don't you don't believe your master?" The red lady looked at her and smiled, as if the world was under her eyes.
"That'...... Then Master be careful. Jing Shu hesitated slightly, but after thinking about it, her master was so good, she would definitely be fine, so she only said a word, and then took Qiao Ling away and walked towards the inner room.
The red lady waited for them to enter the secret passage, and asked leisurely, "Who is it?" ā
The man outside the house chuckled a few times and replied, "It's me!" ā
